Real Conservera Española Tiny Squid in Ink- 110g of Exceptional Quality

Real Conservera Española’s puntillas en su tinta (tiny squid in ink) are a masterpiece of Galician conservas craftsmanship. Founded in 1920, this storied cannery has spent more than a century elevating simple seafood into something extraordinary, and this tin is one of the clearest examples of why they stand apart from almost every other producer in Spain. While many canneries opt for speed and volume, Real Conservera remains firmly committed to small-batch excellence, meticulous hand-cleaning, and sourcing only the highest-quality squid from the cold waters of the Rías Baixas. The difference shows immediately.

Each bite is tender, silky, and full of depth — never rubbery, never overly salty, and beautifully infused with that rich, almost creamy black ink. These puntillas are, quite honestly, among the best I have ever tasted and a tin I recommend without hesitation. Compared to more commercial brands, this is finer, more delicate, more sophisticated. A true treat for anyone who loves real Spanish conservas.

Serving suggestion:
Warm the squid gently in their ink and spoon over toasted blackbird bread rubbed with a touch of garlic. Finish with a drizzle of good olive oil and a sprinkle of chopped parsley. Serve alongside plain white rice or grilled vegetables to let the ink sauce shine.
